It seems the same BC official scorer who routinely awarded assists to
David Emma (during his Hobey-winning season) while he (Emma) was parked
firmly on the bench is up to his old tricks again :-) Not that he's alone
in this conceit; if I had a nickel for every phantom assist I've seen
awarded over the past 25+ seasons (in rinks from Durham to St. Paul) I'd
be a wealthy man ....

Has anyone else here on the List seen the Friars play in person ?? For
a team so highly touted in the pre-season, this early season swoon has me
mystified .... The offense seems impotent (Where for art thou, Rask and
Wright ??) and the team defense/goaltending is dreadful; PC has allowed
the most goals of all 9 Hockey East teams. Underachieving may not suffice
to describe this team; has that magical mix of hard work and "puck luck"
simply abandoned the Friars this year ??
